Confident Canine Training Program

Training Fee: $3,000.00

Go home at 12 weeks of age

Our Confident Canine Training Program is a board-and-train experience that builds a reliable foundation before your puppy comes home. Your pup lives with one of our professional trainers, where they learn potty routines, crate comfort, beginner obedience, and positive socialization. This program helps your puppy gain confidence, manners, and healthy habits—making the transition into your home easier and far less stressful.
Currently offered in Southern and Northern California. Enrollment is limited.

Four additional weeks with a professional trainer to smooth the transition and strengthen your puppy’s foundation. Includes everything in our Ready Pup Program plus:

  • Introduction to polite leash walking

  • Reliable recall practice

  • Improved sit, down, wait, and stay with longer focus times

  • New cues such as “drop it,” “place,” and “side”

  • Ongoing socialization in different settings and environments

  • Reinforcement of potty training routines

  • Gentle handling to prepare for vet visits and grooming

  • Positive exposure to other dogs and busier environments

  • A fun trick for confidence and bonding—like shake, crawl, or roll over

Important Reminder: No matter the amount of early preparation, your puppy is still just that—a puppy. As they grow into adolescence, new challenges will naturally arise, such as fear periods, dips in confidence, and boundary testing.

To keep your pup progressing, it’s essential that training continues right after they come home. We’ll support you with trainer referrals or virtual guidance, but ongoing consistency is the key to lasting success.
